  • 3718m. Tallest mountain in Tenerife, The Canaries and Spain.It has an unequalled climate with enormous contrasts and a wide variety of landscapes in its different areas.
  • WOW this was as close as you'll get to climbing Mt Everest without the effort. Incredibly scary experience at 15,000 ft.From the warm beaches to artic breezes at the top of Teide .Not for the faint hearted as the trip up in the gondola is dramatic rising very fast to the summit. You also want to make sure you have plenty of jumpers and coats as we made the mistake of taking only a few clothes thinking it wouldnt be THAT cold. Breathtaking views and dramatic skyline is definitely worth putting up for a short time the extreme change in weather. Like all montains there is a constant wind as you are almost at the height of the jet stream .Not many places on earth to compete with the views .Scary but awesome
  • Yes, like a fool I went to the top in the cable car wearing just t-shirt and shorts. It was absolutely freezing on top. But I was able to hack it!
  • E bestial cea ce vezi aici! Am fost pana la cota 3500 m si e una dintre minunatiile lumi!Super
  • Fantastic views! Was here at 31.december, but weather was not so cold...
